  • Setting the IP Address of agents automatically

    Posted by _AJ_ on July 26, 2010 at 09:17

    The topic pretty much sums it up, though my question is two fold:

    1) Is it possible to set the IP address of agents automatically, say, from the agent name or through some variable?

    2) Is it possible to define the IP address in the Host Alive module across all the agents?  We run many, many agents, and setting these variables one agent at a time would be… not good.  Ha.

    Thanks!

    You can define a template for specific servers, including the Host Alive Module. Also you could use the Manage Agents | Massive Operations option to copy one Pandora Agent configuration in three clicks across all your agents in your network.

    Your first question is one I also like to be answered.. Because I don’t know either..

    I know I can copy a module across all agents, but then they all have the same Target IP address.  Each agent needs to have the Target IP address for the agent it self, I can’t just go and edit hundreds of nodes by hand…

    Ideas anyone?
